Abstract

Samples of Bi1.4Pb0.6Sr2 Ca2Cu3Oy were prepared by sol-gel technique. The formation of polymeric chelate was made possible by oxalic acid in which metal cations are homogeneously distributed. The functional groups in the chelating agent determine the cation absorption rate that pH value is no more critical. XRD and SQUID showed that the compound has a nearly pure 2223 phase and Tc was measured at 110 K. The synthesis is reproducible and the process is amenable for scaling up.
